My '16 ILX with front spoiler

Phase 1 complete: Christmas present installed (Front Spoiler) overall very Happy with the front spoiler look and install...even the wife says it looks good, next up Valentines and anniversary present to be: rear spoiler

a bit tough if you do the install yourself but its doable..no jack stands or the like ...just a bit more work...





pictures don't do the spoiler justice, its changes the whole look of the front end from every angle...can't wait for the rear!

SWEET!!! I think this is the first silver ILX ive seen with the kit. Really like it.

If you dont mind. If you go into the acura dealer ask them about the side skirts.

I know it looks like your car has side skirts already. I believe it does over mine anyways. But from what you can see on the acura site they do have skirts that look to fit over those.... or it may be a mistake on their web designers fault (or someone in that area).

Here is a GIF of your car with the skirts you have then if you click aspec kit it adds something else onto the skirts...

I dislike the color matched ones that sit mid doot. But the chrome ones that sit really low lool a loy like what you see on a big body Lexus so i like that a lot!

And here I liked the body matched side moldings.

They both look good, but it's personal preference

Chrome catches more eyes, but looks like an obvious factory add on.
Color matched sit higher up, and while people won't really notice them directly, they do add a more aggressive look and accent the body lines.

Again, personal preference; I like the body matched ones; but there's nothing wrong with the chrome if your going that route too.

Where to buy?



Where did you guys buy your front lip spoilers and rear underbody spoilers? I have the 2016 Aspec and I think the black under body spoilers on your cars would look good with what I already have done to my car!
thanks

This looks fantastic! I've been on the fence about this kit, but these pics may have just convinced me. =)
